Hammered bar and tube are decorative items, so each piece is slightly unique. Dimensions are nominal and can vary a bit because of the hammered finish. If you're matching an existing job, we recommend ordering all required material together so it comes from the same run when possible.
Hammered bar sizes are nominal. The hammered texture means actual dimensions will vary slightly along the length. If you need a very tight fit, allow for a bit of tolerance or plan to grind/fit on site.
Yes. Add your requirement to the order comment, or we will discuss with our telecon to arrange shipping.
Dimensions are nominal. Small variations can occur due to the hammered texture and rolling process. For tight-tolerance applications, contact us to confirm.
Hammered material may have minor bow or twist compared to smooth bar or tube. Allow for some variation, especially on longer lengths.
Available finishes are mill/unfinished. Products are supplied raw with no primer or paint.
Many hammered items are used outdoors. Like any steel product they should be primed and painted. They can be powder coated or hot-dip galvanized.
We pull material from our regular steel stock and run it through our hammering machinery. Hammered product is not imported.
Lead times depend on quantity, finish, and fabrication. Most orders ship within about 1–3 weeks.
Minimums for special sizes depend on the size, profile, and quantity. Contact us with your requirements and we'll confirm current minimums.
Many standard components will fit, but the hammered profile can affect fit. Check the listed size and profile on each product, or ask us to confirm compatible fittings for your project.
The hammered texture can slightly change the effective size and contact points, so some tight-tolerance fittings may require adjustment. Test-fit parts before final assembly.
Use padded clamps, avoid over-tightening fasteners directly on the texture, and protect visible surfaces during cutting and welding to reduce marring and grinding marks.
